The People v. O. J. Simpson: American Crime Story (2016)

 

On the morning of June 13, 1994, Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman are found stabbed to death outside Brown's Brentwood, Los Angeles condominium. Brown's ex-husband, NFL player, broadcaster, and actor O. J. Simpson, becomes a person of interest in their murders.

Good, informative and at times even slightly humorous Account of the O.J. Simpson case is thoroughly watchable, but the quality of the performances are variable from excellent (Paulson, Brown) to campy (Travolta, Gooding Jr.).

 

 

Six Days Seven Nights (1998)

A New York magazine editor, and a gruff pilot must put aside their mutual dislike if they are to survive after crash landing on a deserted South Seas island.

OK adventure movie with a built-in romantic comedy; the entertainment is likable, but modest, the two stars make it work.

Halliwell (no star): "A romantic comedy so obvious in its outcome that an audience can sleep through most of it without missing anything of interest."

Maltin***: "Entertaining romantic comedy...An obvious setup is played out with great verve by the stars. Ford is especially loose and funny."
